The Wu family's century-old business in Jiangnan was investigated, and all the enterprises in Jiangnan panicked. Especially those who were closer to the Wu family, they were like ants on a hot pan. They asked around and caught some news.
"I heard that the Wu family has offended someone. The central government has issued an order to directly copy them.”
"Let's not worry about this. The Wu family's business has been investigated, and we can't get away with it.”
The Jiangnan business tycoons sitting together looked at each other, their hearts pounding.
"Go find Elder Bai."
Everyone nodded. Now that the Wu family had fallen, no one knew what was going to happen. In the entire Jiangnan, no one was more suitable than Elder Bai.
Elder Bai, Bai Sanjue, was eighty years old. He had once worked at Jiangnan Academy of Arts and embarked on an official career. Later, he retired after success and floated in the business world for more than ten years. In the whole of Jiangnan, whether it was the old families that had taken root, the entrepreneurs who were at the peak of their power, or even the political officials, they all respected Bai Sanjue very much.
When Bai Sanjue heard this, he slowly opened his eyes.
"The central government has issued a direct order. This old man doesn't have that much face.”
"Elder Bai, please don't say that. This concerns the future development of Jiangnan. You've witnessed the prosperity of Jiangnan over the years. Now that the Wu family has fallen, even we don't have confidence, let alone those bosses who came to invest.”
The white-haired old man stroked his goatee and fell into deep thought.
This group of people wanted him to come out and understand what had happened and whether it would affect their safety.
"Elder Bai, this is a small gift.”
A few of them were holding a calligraphy painting.
"You guys really know how to cater to his preferences."
Elder Bai slowly opened the calligraphy painting, his eyes fixed on it. When all the paintings were displayed, Elder Bai could no longer remain calm.
"This is the authentic work of that person!"
Looking at the bright red seal, there was no doubt that no one in the entire country would dare to imitate his calligraphy.
"I'll make the call."
Bai Sanjue's usual attitude changed. He went from being slow and lazy to being excited. He picked up the phone and dialed the higher-ups of the Jiangnan government.
" Hello, I'm Bai Sanjue. I'll get straight to the point. About the Wu family…"
"So it's Elder Bai! I'm really sorry, Elder Bai. The central government sent someone to handle this personally. The accurate information we have is that the matter started at the Art Academy.”
Bai Sanjue was a clear-headed person. He hung up the phone and fell into deep thought.
Who did Wu Jiaxing offend in school?
In that case, it was understandable.
Jiangnan Art College was the best art college in the country. Most of the students who came here were people with backgrounds. Although Wu Jiaxing was the vice president of the school and a member of the Wu family, the Wu family, which had been established for a hundred years, was nothing compared to some of the families hidden behind the scenes. Not to mention the descendants of those who had carried guns, gone to the battlefield, and held military ranks.
"Elder Bai, how is it?"
" It should only be targeting the Wu family. The central government has personally sent people…"
As Bai Sanjue spoke, he looked at the calligraphy and painting beside him, especially the seal on the calligraphy and painting. The word "Chu" was enough to make him willing.
"Elder Bai, you've worked hard."
Bai Sanjue thought for a moment and finally called the dean's office of Jiangnan College of the Arts.
"Hey, Lil 'Ou, how's the academy?”
The old voice sounded a little tentative, but unfortunately, the person who answered the call was Chu Zhaitian, who was sitting on a chair with a swagger.
"Who are you? My grandson isn't here right now. If there's anything, you can call me later.”
Grandson?
Bai Sanjue's expression suddenly changed. He was stunned for a moment." This…may I ask if this is the landline number of Director Ou Lianzhi's office?”
"That's right, it's my grandson's."
Bai Sanjue was sure that he did not hear wrongly, but he was even more confused.
Ou Lianzhi's grandfather?
Unheard of.
"Why don't you tell me why you're looking for him?”Chu Zhaitian was a good person, and he was very willing to help others.
Bai Sanjue was speechless. Chu Zhaitian's tone on the phone was so firm and strong. No matter how one looked at it, he seemed to be in his twenties or thirties. However, he kept saying that he was Ou Lianzhi's grandfather, who was in his forties or fifties.
"Then how should I address you, sir?”
"What mister? From your tone, you're only in your seventies or eighties. You can call me uncle.”
MMP!
Who was Bai Sanjue? Elder Bai!
The person that the entire Jiangnan had to give face to was now being trampled on by the guy on the other end of the phone. If it were anyone else, they would have hung up long ago and killed their way to Jiangnan Academy of Arts. However, Elder Bai was still Elder Bai. After frowning slightly, Elder Bai said,""Sir, you're very funny. I'll contact Lil 'Ou himself later.”
Chu Zhaitian smiled faintly. His honesty earlier seemed to have annoyed him, but the person on the other end of the phone didn't seem to be affected at all.
"Young man, you can do it. He was very similar to the down-and-out young man I met on a rainy night sixty years ago. Then that's it. I'm hanging up."
Young man?
Who's a young man? I'm already eighty years old!
Bai Sanjue was stunned, not because of the title, but because of the rainy night sixty years ago.
Recalling the past, Bai Sanjue shuddered and stood up abruptly." I understand! I understand!" Prepare the car and head to Jiangnan Academy of Arts immediately! Hurry!"
"Elder Bai, it's time for you to go to the hospital to recuperate.”
"What recuperation? Go to Jiangnan Art College immediately.”He looked at the top-notch calligraphy and painting of the current era and was very excited.
The business tycoons who came to ask for advice were confused. What exactly had happened to make Elder Bai so excited?
"At first, I thought the Wu family had offended some big family or was fighting against the Red Planet, but now I understand.”
Bai Sanjue explained as they walked," The people that the Wu family offended are even more terrifying than them!”
"What is it? He was even more terrifying than those legendary families. This…Elder Bai.”
"That's right, he's a legend!"
They had never seen Bai Sanjue, who was so calm and collected, so excited. Moreover, he even praised someone like this.
Although this was not a compliment, it was just a statement of fact.
"Don't worry and go back. That person has always been straightforward. As long as you don't provoke him, he won't bother with you.”
"Is Elder Bai going to see him this time?"
"That's right. I want to meet that uncle.”
Uncle?
F * ck!
Elder Bai, are you joking? The people you call uncle are at least eighty, or even ninety, or even a hundred.
These big shots sucked in a breath of cold air and did not even dare to think about it.
Bai Sanjue smiled, and his gaze stopped on the painting for another three seconds. Then, he changed into the "Heaven Picking" suit (similar to a Chinese tunic suit) that he would only wear on formal occasions and left the house.
The few big shots were left in a daze.
"Who is it?"
"Follow them. If we can get in touch with them, it will be a good thing for us.”
